Felt today would be a fitting day to take out my 1976 Ruger Blackhawk.

I'm free to buy an AR or a handgun, you're not.

You don't think there are criminals in Canada with handguns? What an absurd statement.

Nowhere near the amount the states has. Enough shit arguments already.

Still angry today? It is not a shit argument. You cannot buy an AR or a handgun because you are not free to do so and your attitude is exactly why. Enjoy your bolt actions while you can because those will be banned too.

That is illegal in Quebec, Manitoba, Sask too isn't it?

No idea. I do know people are spending decades in prison for weed possession in the states. And then being denied their right to buy guns.

It is. Same in Calgary although enforcement is rare. I will agree with you cannabis should be legal in the US but I'd take ARs and handguns over cannabis any day.

Its not just about weed. Its about the US having systems to fuck over people for the rest of their lives for piddly shit like weed. And theyre proud of it. It is a second world country and their lack of gun laws is one of the many examples.

More Canadians move to America than Americans to Canada. Just because you hate America doesn't mean everyone else does. Enjoy the slow erosion of your "privilege" to own a firearm.

People move to the states for money. Not for higher odds of getting shot.

Guns aint freedom.

"Guns aint freedom."

That's just your opinion and I don't share it. I do know having your firearms confiscated under threats of prison certainly isn't freedom. Your attitude is exactly why Canadian firearm owners are in the position they are in now. If you treat it as a privilege the government will too and will slowly restrict it to nothing.
